Shazad: Hi there, my name's Shazad Latif.
I play Ash Tyler and Voq.
And Mirror Voq.
(whooshing) My first point of contact
with Star Trek was my granddad, he was a big TOS fan,
and my uncle, and they used to watch it together.
And then The Next Generation was the one I grew up with.
The one I watched the most.
'Cause it was sort of at the same time
as Fresh Prince and Simpsons, so you would have to end up
watching it to keep watching the others,
and then I realized it was good as I got older.
(Voq speaks Klingon)
Shazad: Worf I always loved.
Worf: Yes.
Shazad: Even before I knew I was playing a Klingon
or anything like that, I loved that character,
and so the beautiful thing about this thing
is it was a new character.
I wasn't playing a character that's already played.
I could create something from scratch.
So, that's a very nice place to be as an actor
'cause you can create something that you can immortalize,
but also be a very unique and organic experience.
So, I'm getting on now, I'm 31,
so I'm trying to be inspired by myself
and the things around me and that kind of stuff.

This is from Annie on Instagram.
"What's an idea, a prop, a place, a person from Trek past
that you personally would really like to see show up
at some point in the new Trek that hasn't shown up yet?"
I would say Worf again.
I'd like to see him come and get involved with the Klingons.
I don't know how that's possible, but.
Worf: Yes.
Shazad: Or Whoopi Goldberg.
Worf: No.
Shazad: 'Cause she's great.
-: Yes. -: Yes!
